Stem Cell Treatment for Shoulder Pain: Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)
As patients strive for more innovative treatments for persistent shoulder pain, regenerative therapies are gaining more attention. Shoulder pain may persist despite surgical intervention – which is often the reason for surgery in the first place. This has led many patients to seek alternative measures to treat their shoulder pain. Rotator cuff problems and shoulder joint arthritis are two frequent reasons patients consult Dennis M. Lox, M.D., a Sports and Regenerative Medicine Specialist. Dr. Lox has treated many patients with chronic shoulder problems with Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and Stem Cell Therapy. Dr. Lox notes many patients are now considering regenerative medicine as alternatives to surgery, especially shoulder joint replacement. Being able to treat shoulder pain with conservative measures that focus on healing and regeneration is appealing to many patients.
